The architectural ensemble consists of the Gate of Dawn with the Chapel of St. Virgin Mary the Mother of Grace and the miraculous painting of Mary, the early-baroque Church of St. Teresa and St. John of the Cross. The whole ensemble has an irregular shape and earlier was a part of the defensive wall of the city. The Gate of Dawn is also a gate to Vilnius Old town, so to stay in a Domus Maria hotel means to start your trip to Vilnius from the beginning of history.

The building of guest house Domus Maria was built in 1621-1627 and was used as a monastery of Discalced Carmelites. In the ground floor of the main building was a refectory, a storage room, a barn, a bakery and a kitchen. The other levels had monk cells. The rooms of the monastery where decorated with paintings and frescoes, that remained only in the Great Hall. In the end of 17th century the monastery was destroyed.
